I need help putting it back together!!!!

It's all good. It would have been a bad thing if everything looked good on tear down.

Probably cut a fuel injector o-ring reassembling it. I did that last time :/
 












The bright side is that its not coming apart as far this time.
You are about to become our resident expert on the 4.0 ohv.
 






I'm still not convinced the lower intake manifold is completely sealed... the reason I say that is this.. the gaskets were not one piece... like in that file you sent me, they were a 2 piece thing... 1 each side, leaving the bottom unsealed, which is why it leaked, and I had to fill the void with goop.... I just got the fuel rail off to discover a top O ring had split... so... would fuel pump out of that thing enough to make a shower? or am I looking at a coolant leak again? This thing has been on n off more time than a bride's night gown...

yup, the gas can spray pretty good.
as long as you filled both ends of that valley with something your good.

your almost there.
 






back together... ran it for a bit, doesn't appear to have any leaks... fingers crossed I won't be coming back to a puddle under it tomorrow... damn thing..

Congratulations!
 












What kinda fluid is the puddle?
 












Stick your finger in it and find out for sure lol
 






I'd just washed the motor, so I'm not sure if it's leftovers... or new stuff.. it's oily.. it's not particularly black, it doesn't smell like used motor oil.. it's weird...


it's going to it's new home tomorrow... but, I feel bad...

Nice looking, and the nurf bars aren't even rusted out.
 






shell was totally rust free... she was nice inside too... I only bought it as a back up shell for Pickle incase I rolled it or got hit
